Drake jumps in as the third most trolled musician online. Despite a household name in music and securing several number one hits, it’s surprising to see he received negativity in 22.24% of tweets.

Following closely behind in fourth and fifth are Future and Lewis Capaldi with 19.96% and 19.59% of tweets in a negative light, respectively.
